Touch....

I see everyone calling the new iPod the iPod Touch? I'm just curious....I haven't seen any rumors pointing to a name, is this something we came up with? I think it'll just be called the iPod, replacing the 5.5G (much like when the Photo replaced the B&W iPods, they dropped the Photo title). I dunno....it just doesn't seem very Appleish....plus, it would seem that Apple is ripping the name off of HTC since they have the HTC Touch :\

Many people think they will refresh the current iPod's, and then ADD the iPod Touch, as the new high end iPod... so they decided to call it the iPod touch

Many rumor sites have reported that the new wide-screen, touch-screen iPod is in fact, the iPod Touch. I believe that the shuffle and nano will remain the same, with some storage upgrades. The "fat-Pod" will replace the 5.5G Video iPod, and the Touch will be a completely new line of iPods.
